THIS IS THE POWER ER OF THE NETWORK. now.CISCO 7200 AND 7301 SERIES ROUTERSCisco® 7200VXR Series routers deliver outstandingversatility in a compact form factor; they areparticularly suitable for applications that requireGigabit Ethernet and OC-3/STM-1 Packet overSONET (POS) connectivity with exceptional IPservices performance. Offering packet-processingspeeds of up to one million packets per second,three built-in Gigabit Ethernet ports on the routingengine, a huge range of port-adaptor options, andan unparalleled number of sophisticated IP servicecapabilities, the Cisco 7200VXR is an ideal high-end branch-office aggregation router.

The latest generation of integrated services routers suchas the Cisco 1800, 2800, and 3800 series platforms enablethe deployment of sophisticated communications servicesand applications in even the smallest of remote offices.However, the ultimate success of such deployments andtheir operation depend on the installation of an efficientand scalable system at the network aggregation points.The Cisco 7200VXR is ideally suited to meet this challengeand deliver these applications transparently.

A primary strengths of the Cisco 7200VXR are itsmodularity and flexibility. It offers a choice of 4- and 6-slotchassis, a selection of processors providing up to 1 Mpps,an extensive range of LAN and WAN interfaces, and singleor dual power supplies, helping enable customers tocustomize their systems to achieve desired levels ofperformance, connectivity, and capacity. The Cisco7200VXR Series is typically deployed for generalenterprise WAN aggregation, voice over IP (VoIP), security,and various other IP applications because of itsexceptionally broad routing features. Its flexibility,modularity, and cost-effectiveness offer both investmentprotection and maximum return on investment, allowing organizations to upgrade and redeploy a Cisco7200VXR Series router as business and networkrequirements change.

As a compact form factor of the Cisco 7200VXR, the Cisco7301 uses the same processor engine as the Cisco7200VXR to provide throughput of up to 1 Mpps. It alsooffers extensive port-adapter support. Similar to the Cisco7200VXR with the NPE-G1 Network Processing Engine, theCisco 7301 provides three built-in 10/100/1000 Ethernetports and support for one port adapter. The Cisco 7301also supports AC and DC power supplies with the optionof dual power supplies in applications where increasedresiliency is required.

The Cisco 7301 is most attractive when customers arelooking for the performance and functions of Cisco7200VXR Series routers but desire a more compact formfactor for dedicated applications.

Compact Form Factor

The Cisco 7200VXR can support up to six port adapters in a fully

modular three-rack-unit (3RU) form factor. Up to 16 chassis can be

supported in a single 7-foot rack. With its smaller form factor, the

Cisco 7301 provides the most powerful and feature-rich 1RU router

solution in the industry.

Exceptional Value

As the most powerful Cisco single-processor platform, the Cisco

7200VXR offers customers a superior price-performance ratio

supporting high-speed media and high-density configu-rations with

up to 1 Mpps processing at a cost-effective price point.

Simplified Network Convergence

The Cisco 7200VXR Series Multiservice Interchange (MIX)-enabled

backplane allows for integration of data, voice, and video in a single

WAN aggregation device. With the latest quality-of-service (QoS)

features, the Cisco 7200VXR Series helps enable enterprises to build

highly efficient networks that can both optimize bandwidth usage

and guarantee the performance of delay- and loss-sensitive

applications such as voice and video.

VPN Support

Using the VPN Acceleration Module 2+ (VAM2+), the Cisco 7301

and Cisco 7200VXR Series VPN routers deliver IP Security (IPSec)

encryption scalability to 280 Mbps for the most demanding headend

and site-to-site VPN deployments.

Enhanced Security

The security capabilities of the Cisco 7301 and Cisco 7200VXR

include support for a fully featured stateful firewall, intrusion

prevention, access control lists (ACLs), and IPSec. Possessing the

intelligence and performance to accurately identify, classify, and stop

malicious or damaging traffic in real time, the Cisco 7301 and Cisco

7200VXR help enable the network to proactively defend itself.

Maximum ROI

A low price-per-port entry point makes the value of the Cisco 7301

and Cisco 7200VXR unbeatable, while allowing customers to easily

upgrade and redeploy their equipment as network needs change. The

processor-based system architecture helps ensure that new functions

can be applied quickly and easily through simple software updates.

Flexibility and Modularity

A rapidly developing global commercial environment means that

enterprises and organizations need solutions that can both fit their

present needs and help them build toward the emerging demands of

the future. To meet these challenging requirements, the Cisco

7200VXR offers a tremendous variety of feature and connectivity

options that provide exceptional deployment flexibility.

The Cisco 7200VXR and Cisco 7301 draw on the extensive array of

features available within Cisco IOS® Software to deliver an unrivalled

range of capabilities without compromising flexibility.
